Stone Circle take a stab

Both assured him everything was fine, though the tone wasn't entirely convincing. Reverie excused herself, and Phox waved a goodbye as he fell into line beside the silent Tauris. Whatever was going on in that head of hers, he couldn't say. All he knew was it felt like there was some kind of tension in the air. Had Figment told her something horrible about him, he wondered? Was Fig mad that his dad was crashing his new life? Or maybe Tauris had some weird grudge against all the other Redhawks. That wouldn't make much sense, considering this was his first time meeting her. Maybe she was just wary of strangers around her kids, which Phox could relate to. He decided that was the answer, though he couldn't do anything to assuage her fears.

When they arrived, Figment looked downright bedraggled. And... apologetic? Hey, kiddo. I guess I can still call you that, right? Towma told me you got a little settled life out here. I just wanted to come check in and see how you were doing, meet the fam, et cetera. If it's better, I can come back another time? he offered. Phox certainly didn't want to intrude any more than he already was... though he couldn't help but stretch his neck to try and see into the darkness of the den. All he could see was the entrance, though, and no little grandkids were visible from here.
